Words: Steve Johnson
Greetings Audi enthusiasts! Thank you for clicking on another edition of Auction Watch where we’ve done the internet searching for you. We’ve checked multiple car auction sites looking for Audi models worthy of your bids. Each Thursday we post those listings calling out a car’s highlights, and include a few pictures and a link to the listing. Our goal is to help you find the Audi that you’re looking for in time for you to bid on it. Without further ado, here is this week’s listing overview.
The ultra-low mileage, 1 of 99, 2006 TT Roadster Special Edition that was previously listed on Bring a Trailer relisted on Pcarmarket and only bid to $25,000. That was $3,860 less than it bid to on BaT, thus it didn’t sell, but it is available on Pcarmarket’s Deal Tank asking $38,000.
Now moving on to this week’s auction listings. There are no 7-series cars or SUV in this week’s listings, but there is at least one of just about everything else. We have five of Audi Sport’s finest, two of Audi flagship limos, a handful of sporty rides, and even a few daily driver candidates. Please check out all of this week’s 18 listings below, and as always, thanks for reading!
2007 Audi RS 4 (80,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 04.11.2024 1:56 PM EDT
Bid quickly, auction ends early this PM! How about that Mugello Blue pearl color? Inside the black cabin are Recaro front seats in black Nappa leather with contrasting piping, a glovebox-mounted 6-CD changer, and Bose sound. Dynamic Ride Control suspension is still in-place and under the hood the 4.2L V8 (420HP/317 lb-ft) has had some recent service, please read the listing for details. Carfax reports no accidents or damage.
2017 Audi R8 V10 Plus Coupe (20,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 04.12.2024 1:25 PM EDT
The popular Nardo Gray was an Audi Exclusive color on this uprated R8. That Plus rating bumps the 5.2L V10’s output to 610HP/413 lb-ft and it pairs well with a 7-speed S tronic. The black interior has the Diamond Stitch leather package with contrasting Ara Blue threads, matte Carbon Sigma trim, Alcantara headliner, and B&O sound. Other options include dynamic steering and 20” wheel package that brought the MSRP up to almost $207K. The Carfax report is clean. And the picture of the car’s rear, do I see skeletons in the background?
2013 Audi TT RS (12,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 04.12.2024 2:40 PM EDT
My favorite Audi color here, Misano Red pearl, with ppf covering the car’s front end. In the driver-focused cabin are leather seats with Alcantara centers and contrasting stitching, Audi Navigation Plus, and Bose sound. The OEM S Magnetic Ride suspension is replaced with Ohlins Road & Track coilovers and stopping power comes from GiroDisc slotted/ventilated front discs with RS-script calipers. The turbocharged 2.5L I5 is factory rated at 360HP/343 lb-ft and spins a 6-speed manual. The Carfax is clean, as is the car’s underside, but it’s riding on its original Toyo Proxes tires.
2012 Audi R8 V8 Coupe (24,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 04.13.2024 2:04 PM EDT
Here’s a one-owner, low-ish mileage, 6-speed manual, and it had the A/C compressor replaced in October 2020. I think that checks most of the boxes. The exterior is Ice Silver metallic with carbon fiber side blades. The interior is two-tone black/Titanium Gray with leather seats, Audi Parking System Plus with a rearview camera, and an infotainment system with Audi navigation. The 4.2L V8 is Audi rated at 420HP/317 lb-ft and the clean Carfax report shows a very good service history.
2007 Audi A4 Avant (42,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 04.13.2024 3:28 PM EDT
I love to say “red cars are faster” and that certainly applies to this highly modified, one-owner, Brilliant Red over black long roof. You really need to read the listing, even if you’re not interested in bidding, the car sounds just that good. It’s modified inside and out, the Carfax report is clean, but it no longer has a catalytic converter so emission tests could be a problem if you need one in your area.
2015 Audi A8 L (99,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 04.14.2024 3:04 PM EDT
No Reserve. This Glacier White metallic flagship is loaded with options like a Sport package to improve the handling. Inside the black interior Luxury and Cold Weather packages add diamond-stitched Valcona leather heated/ventilated/massaging 22-way power front seats, heated rear seats, and an Alcantara headliner. There’s also a Driver Assistance package, a head-up display, Night-Vision Assistant, and B&O Advanced sound. Twin-turbos, new in February 2022, provide the forced air induction system for the 4.0L V8 that is Audi rated at 435HP/444 lb-ft and connects to an 8-speed Tiptronic. There’s a clean Carfax report with a good service history too.
2022 Audi RS 6 Avant (7,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 04.14.2024 3:50 PM EDT
This shade of blue is ceramic coated and called Ultra Blue metallic and that’s over a spacious black interior with Rock gray-stitched seats, Carbon twill structure inlays, and Audi MMI Navigation Plus, and B&O 3D sound. Options include Dynamic Ride Control, Sport exhaust, Audi Side assist, and red brake calipers. This twin-turbo 4.0L V8 is factory rated at 591HP/590 lb-ft with the 48-volt mild-hybrid system and pairs with an 8-speed Tiptronic. Carfax reports no accidents or damage.
2013 Audi S6 (98,000 Miles)
cars & bids – 04.15.2024 2:05 PM EDT
The 4.0L V8 under the Phantom Black metallic hood of this full-size sedan is enhanced with CTS Audi RS7 turbochargers, a kyletunedit DS1 ECU tune, and a Silly Rabbit Motorsport air intake. That upgrade power flows to a 7-speed S tronic that runs a Silly Rabbit Motorsport TCU tune. Please check out the listing for numerous other performance and cosmetic mods. The black interior has Valcona leather seats, carbon fiber trim, Innovation and Cold Weather packages, B&O Advanced sound, and a bit of a sagging headliner. The Carfax report is clean and please read the Lemon Squad inspection report.
2015 Audi S3 (54,000 Miles)
cars & bids – 04.15.2024 2:40 PM EDT
This Mythos Black metallic sedan is at the other end of the size spectrum but its engine mods will help it keep up. The 2.0L I4 runs a 034Motorsport ECU tune, breaths in through a 034Motorsport cold air intake, and exhales through a 034Motorsport cat-less downpipe. The chassis rolls on 19” AXE wheels. The interior has leather black/Magma Red seats, Audi MMI Navigation Plus and Driver Assistance packages, and B&O sound. The Carfax report is clean but the paint is worn on the roof panel by the sunroof and no catalytic converter will be a problem for emission testing.
2013 Audi Q5 3.0T (133,000 Miles)
cars & bids – 04.15.2024 3:36 PM EDT
This Prestige trim-level, off-road ready, supercharged 3.0L V6-equipped daily-driver is back on cars & bids after selling on January 16, 2024, for $16,000. Riding on 18” Black Rhino wheels, mod highlights include an IE ECU Stage 2+ dual pulley tune, an IE TCU tune, a CTS Turbo intake, a Merc Racing high-capacity heat exchanger, a custom exhaust, and H&R lift springs. Please read the listing for more mods and the sale reason in the comments. The color is Monsoon Gray with Black Optics over a black interior. The Carfax report is still clean.
2016 Audi S8 (63,000 Miles)
cars & bids – 04.16.2024 2:26 PM EDT
A full-size Florett Silver metallic canvas to work with here on this unmodified, accident/damage-free flagship. The black interior has Full Leather, Driver Assistance, and Cold Weather packages, heated/ventilated/massaging front seats, carbon fiber trim, Audi Navigation Plus with MMI Touch, and Bose surround sound. The engine is a turbocharged 4.0L V8 factory rated at 520HP/481 lb-ft and it pairs with an 8-Speed Tiptronic. Check out the Recent Service History in the listing.
2001 Audi TT Roadster 225 (57,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 04.16.2024 3:08 PM EDT
No Reserve. This Brilliant Black with black soft top pocket-sized speedster is probably in better mechanical than cosmetic condition as it’s had its share of repainted body panels. But please read the listing for recent service. The black interior has the Amber Red leather seats with the Baseball Optic package, Premium package, Bose sound, and a damaged surround for the power-operated rear windscreen. The 1.8L I4 is Audi rated at 225HP/207 lb-ft and spins a 6-speed manual. Carfax reports minor damage to the front in May 2020.
2014 Audi R8 V8 Coupe (10,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 04.16.2024 4:48 PM EDT
Here’s yet another low-mileage R8 but I’ll cut this one some slack, it appears to have lived in Anchorage, Alaska, until February 2022 (per the clean Carfax service history). It is Ice Silver metallic outside, two-tone black/Titanium Gray on the inside with leather/Alcantara seats, a Convenience package, and optional Carbon Sigma packages inside and out. The 4.2L V8 (430HP/317 lb-ft) mates with a 7-speed S tronic.
2013 Audi A8 L (55,000 Miles)
cars & bids – 04.17.2024 2:12 PM EDT
Here’s another Audi flagship model but this one has the big engine, a 6.3L W12 (500HP/463 lb-ft) under its Phantom Black pearl hood. An 8-speed Tiptronic completes the drive train. It’s well-optioned too with Sport, Driver Assistance, and Full Leather packages; heated, ventilated, massaging front and rear seats; and Bose surround sound. Although, the seller notes the driver’s seat memory function and one of the massage motors are inoperative. But the Carfax report is clean.
2004 Audi Allroad (59,000 Miles)
cars & bids – 04.17.2024 2:40 PM EDT
No Reserve. This Atlas Gray metallic long roof has low mileage for the model year but a few bumps and bruises (see rear bumper, left side). The roomy interior is black and gray with leather seats, wood trim, and an Audi Symphony AM/FM/CD/cassette stereo. The engine is a twin-turbo 2.7L V9 Audi rated at 250HP/258 lb-ft and the transmission is a 5-speed automatic. Carfax reports damage in September 2013 and that the left fender was requested for repair. The seller reports the front bumper is misaligned after being hit by another vehicle.
2014 Audi S5 Cabriolet (54,000 Miles)
cars & bids – 04.17.2024 2:54 PM EDT
A drop top version of my first Audi, the B8.5 S5, finished in Phantom Black pearl with a black soft top over a black interior with Chestnut Brown leather Comfort seats. Inside you’ll also find Audi MMI Navigation Plus package, brushed aluminum trim, and tinted windows to keep it cooler in there. The supercharged 3.0L V6 is factory rated at 333HP/325 lb-ft and mates to a 7-speed S tronic and optional Sport diff. Carfax reports no accidents or damage.
2006 Audi A4 (28,000 Miles)
cars & bids – 04.17.2024 4:04 PM EDT
No Reserve. This sedan has the makings of a good daily driver: low mileage and just the right amount of wear that you won’t get upset about getting dinged in a parking lot. The color is Quartz Gray metallic outside, black inside with leather seats, aluminum trim, and an Audi Symphony stereo with CD player. Please read the listing’s Recent Service History. The Carfax is clean but the tires are from 2015 and will need replacement.
2015 Audi A4 S line (48,000 Miles)
Bring a Trailer – 04.17.2024 4:17 PM EDT
This could also be a good, fun daily as the turbocharged 2.0L I4 (220HP/258 lb-ft) is spins a 6-speed manual. Its color is listed as metallic gray, I’m guessing it’s Monsoon Gray. The black interior has leather seats, wood trim, and a CD stereo. No accidents or damage are reported Carfax.
